The british steamship Hartlepool went down outside Egersund in 1888. ( I know this is not related to this site, but...) Does anyone know where she was built? Perhaps a photo?

RESPONSES:

HARTLEPOOLS
Hudson Shipping Co., built 1880 by W. Gray & Co.
Sank after striking a rock at Naalevig on Dec. 6-1888 while on a voyage to Bergen. 17 died.

W. Gray & Co. was probably in Sunderland at that time (maybe they still are?).

Sorry, no photo!
